to cut some roof sheeting i have used the 7 and 1/4 circular saw with the blade turned backwards so the teeth don't grab the sheet and end up tearing it works really good
I always wear gloves using my grinders handles and guards always fitted no homemade attachments like a die grinder shafts or modified 9 inch guards.
Might have told a few lies there,
9inch grinders are the most awsome tool when matched to the appropriate job. A 9inch grinder is only dangerous in a idiots hands other than that its a brilliant tool. Some site wont allow us with 9 inches on it so we just swap the 9 inch guard with a 7 1/4 guard.
I have a 4,5 and 9 in angle grinders and recently had trouble using the 4in doing some cutting jobs. The discs shattered and broke pretty easy. The job was just cutting some aluminium posts.
After researching the web and reading about some of my bad habits which I wasn't aware of, I thought this the place to ask of those in the trade.
What disc for what job and how to apply disc size and wattage of the grinder to a particular job.
Also read that the 9in grinders have been banned on worksites!
Should have found this before I tried yesterday, bits flew everywhere......................just got a tungsten carbide tipped metal disc to try, looks bloody aggressive though
